  • Hi Brady. I find this the most interesting of your channels, and for your next project maybe you could explain the use of some English words in foreign languages, here in Portugal they tend to crop up all of a sudden, some for only a short time but some others really stick and I'm sure that there are in Spanish and French...

  • @Infloresence thanks.. there's no reason we can't do English words popping up in other languages as part of this project...

  • 0:40 don't we call them the VANguard? i wonder why we don't call them vanguard artists, then...

    probably because so many of them are french!

  • LHOOQ = "elle a chaud au cul" means "she's horny" in this sentence.

  • oh wow, is she single?

  • Excellent video - very well explained. Thank you!

  • If only I had had an history/art/literature teacher like her...I probably wouldn't have gone into science.

    That was just great. I need more. :D

  • You taking suggestions for words?

  • she looks like cardinal ricileu with that beard!

  • Another interesting and informative vid - great work - you really know yr stuff, and communicate it really well. Hope to see lots more on upcoming vids ;)

    Yay - you've just increased my vocab background on avant-garde!!!

    And sakokosa - yes, I second that - very photogenic! ;)

  • 'Elle est chaud au cul' could also mean: 'She is horny.'
